Definitions
- the present invention relates to the field of suspensions.
- it relates to the suspension of vehicles, for example passenger cars. More specifically, it relates the means used to allow the travel between two points (a suspended point, for example linked to the body or chassis of a car, i.e. to the suspended mass, and a point unsprung, for example secured to a suspension arm or a wheel carrier, i.e. integral with the unsprung mass) while endeavoring to reduce variations in force developed by the suspension, seen by the suspended point.
- a suspended point for example linked to the body or chassis of a car, i.e. to the suspended mass
- a point unsprung for example secured to a suspension arm or a wheel carrier, i.e. integral with the unsprung mass
- EP 0 878 333 describes a suspension device according to the preamble of the claim 1.
- the suspension of a vehicle has constructive provisions by which the movement of a wheel or wheels of an axle is guided relative to the body (or by relation to the chassis if the vehicle is fitted with one, or between the body and the chassis if necessary), and it includes means controlling the travel of each wheel (a wheel is an organ says “not suspended") in relation to the body (any point on the body is said to be “suspended”), to carry the load while maintaining a certain ground clearance of the vehicle (this is the function spring) and to prevent maintenance of oscillations occurring between suspended and non-suspended points suspended following a disturbance (this is the function of a shock absorber).
- a spring is calculated to support the load of the vehicle while maintaining ground clearance sufficient for the vehicle. Thanks to the damping function, the wheels fitted with pneumatic tires tend to always remain in contact with the road when the suspension is requested by road irregularities. A damper prevents the maintenance of oscillations occurring as a result a disturbance, in particular the oscillations of the wheel itself, that the tire cannot alone mitigate quickly enough.
- This operating mode is useful in particular for absorbing the tire vibrations. It is proposed to detect the occurrence of a resonance of the tire for quickly give to a value sufficiently lower than 1 (for example according to a law of linear variation as a function of the amplitude) in order to dampen the vibrations of the mass not suspended.
- the objective of the invention is to propose another approach, making it much less useful to detection of an unsprung mass resonance, to provide a high level of safety vehicle operation and great comfort.
- the invention provides a suspension device, ensuring the control of the vertical clearance between a suspended mass and an unsprung mass, comprising an elastic connection mounted between the suspended mass and the unsprung mass, said elastic connection comprising a spring and comprising a jack reversible electric, acting in parallel with the spring to control the movements of relative movement between suspended mass and unsprung mass, Z cr being the distance between the suspended mass and the unsprung mass, said device comprising means for controlling the electric jack for, from an observed variation of the distance Z cr between the suspended mass and the unsprung mass, due to a deflection of the elastic connection, that the electric jack develops a force F.
- roller assembly means the totality of the organs which, for a given suspension configuration, usually stored in the unsprung mass.
- the unsprung mass comprises, in addition to all the members rotating around the axis of rotation of the wheel, the wheel holder, the bar, the brake caliper and the electric traction motor (the suspension motor does not not part).
- the invention proposes to develop a force component in the electric actuator which takes into account the unsprung mass, which tends to prevent the accumulation of energy in this one.
- the electric actuator is controlled so as to develop an accompanying component of the spring, creating an oriented force such as the relative displacement between body and wheel, so as to erase the variations in force due to the variations in clearance.
- the role of the electric actuator is to limit as much as possible the variations in force seen by the checkout. If there was no variation in effort, there would be no acceleration, so no cash movement vertically, so the comfort would be very great.
- the electric actuator acts in permanently in spring corrector in order to radically limit variations in force than otherwise the spring would impose on the mass suspended under the action of external disturbances, while preventing an unacceptable accumulation of energy in the unsprung mass.
- Function of this spring corrector consists in modifying the reaction force that would naturally have developed the spring in response to a disturbance, applying a correction strategy aiming to provide the best possible comfort while preserving security.
- FIG. 1 in front view a four-wheeled passenger vehicle, equipped with connections elastics 1 mounted between the wheels 2 and the body 3.
- FIG 2 the four connections elastic 1 mounted between the wheels 2 and the body 3 of the vehicle.
- Each elastic link comprises a vertical slide 7, a helical spring 4 and an electric actuator 5 mounted in parallel.
- the electric actuator 5 comprises a rack 50 secured to the unsprung part of the ground connection.
- An electric motor 52 is fixed by its carcass to the suspended part of the ground connection.
- a pinion 51 is mounted on the rotor of the motor and is meshed on the rack 50.
- patent application EP 0 878 332 For more details on a possible construction including guiding the wheel plane by a vertical slide, consult patent application EP 0 878 332.
- other principles for linking a rolling assembly to a body can be adopted and are compatible with the use of an electric cylinder and a spring mounted in parallel.
- the body 3 shown in solid lines is not rolled. It’s its natural look driving in a straight line.
- the 3 ′ body on the other hand, has slight roll overcompensation and we will come back to this aspect in more detail below.
- an electric motor 52 of the self-controlled synchronous type is used, permanent magnets.
- This type of engine by construction includes position sensors of the rotor used to control it, whatever the application. Used in this application, these sensors actually measure the variation in distance between the wheel 2 and the body 3. The information coming from the sensors internal to the engine reaches a control unit 55 individual wheel, via channels 53.
- the effort F therefore comprises a mass compensation component weighted by the coefficient C a , a damping component weighted by the coefficient C v and a spring support component weighted by the coefficient C p .
- the coefficients can be chosen experimentally according to the starting values which are proposed below.
- Figures 3a to 5c show the effect of the different components.
- the road profile is shown, which is equivalent to the variation (on the ordinate) of the ground level as a function of time (on the abscissa) if it is assumed that the vehicle is traveling at constant speed. It is the curve "P".
- the horizontal axis represents a reference determined by the average level of the road.
- the ordinates are the deviations from this average level.
- the road profile therefore comprises a first level without deviation from the average level, followed by a bump with a trapezoidal profile, followed by a second level without deviation from the average level. All the figures relate to the crossing of the same obstacle, namely an elevation of the ground level followed by a return to the initial level (an isolated bump).
- the curve “Z r ” shows the displacement of the wheel (that is to say of the unsprung mass) which results from the crossing of the obstacle for a suspension having the characteristics illustrated respectively by each of the figures.
- the curve “Z c ” illustrates the displacement of the body, that is to say of the suspended mass, which results from the crossing of the obstacle for a suspension having the characteristics illustrated respectively by each of the figures.
- the curve “F” illustrates the evolution of the force in the electric actuator 5 which results from crossing the obstacle for a suspension having the characteristics illustrated respectively by each of the figures.
- FIGS. 3a, 3b and 3c illustrate the effect of the compensation of the unsprung mass by a variation of the coefficient C a , the coefficients C v and C p having constant values.
- the coefficient C a is zero in Figure 3a.
- interesting performance has been observed by compensating up to about 50% of the unsprung mass.
- the intermediate value in Figure 3b corresponds to a compensation of approximately 30% of the unsprung mass.
- the value in Figure 3c corresponds to a compensation of approximately 70% of the unsprung mass.
- the disturbance imposed by the profile of the road and the force reaction F result in a displacement of the unsprung mass illustrated by the curve Z r , and a displacement of the body illustrated by the curve Z c .
- Figures 4a, 4b and 4c illustrate the effect of damping by varying the coefficient C v , the coefficients C a and C p having constant values.
- the coefficient C v is low in Figure 4a, is of intermediate value in Figure 4b, and higher in Figure 4c.
- To choose an initial value of C v we give our the criterion that the amplitude of the second oscillation is attenuated by 90% compared to the amplitude of the first. It can be seen by the curves F that it is established in the electric actuator 5 an effort that is all the greater as the damping is increased.
- Figures 5a, 5b and 5c illustrate the effect of spring compensation by modifying its apparent stiffness as explained in patent application EP 0 878 333, by a variation of the coefficient C p , the coefficients C a and C v having constant values.
- the coefficient C p is zero in Figure 5a.
- the coefficient C p is equal to 1 when the electric actuator operates as a pure profile follower, in the sense given to this expression in the aforementioned patent. This coefficient is not chosen independently of the jurisdiction. The more you choose a stiff spring, the more weight should be given to this component if you want to preserve comfort. Interesting performances have been observed up to about 80% of behavior in pure profile follower.
- the coefficient is 0.4 in Figure 5b and 0.8 in Figure 5c.
- Figures 3b (configurations identical to Figures 4b and 5b) and 5c illustrate good combinations of coefficient values. It is however difficult to propose combinations of universal value. It is advisable to proceed experimentally in order to choose which is best for a given vehicle. But unlike suspensions Conventional, the search for the best solution is done here by simple programming. he is therefore much faster, more efficient and more economical to sweep a large number of combinations of features because there are no mechanical parts to change.
- the control unit 55 receives from the sensors internal to the engine, via the channel 53, information on the instantaneous measured position "Z im " of the electric actuator (see FIG. 6).
- a function block 70 of the unit 55 continuously recalculates the equilibrium position, designated by Z o , in which the force of the spring 4 exactly compensates for the static load of the body.
- the unit 55 continuously calculates the force F to be exerted, according to a predetermined sampling period (for example every milliseconds). During successive calculations, the unit 55 gradually adapts the force of the electric actuator to the deflection deviations having a permanent character, in order to progressively cancel the correction due to these. This is what provides some relaxation.
- a function block 71 calculates the value of F as explained above, taking into account the choices made for the coefficients .
- the suspension device comprises means for evaluating such a stress, not vertical and oriented parallel to the right joining the centers of the contact areas on the ground of the wheels considered, here belonging to an axle since the roll. We oppose this phenomenon by developing in the electric cylinders 5 a correction component + C 1 outside the turn and -C 1 inside the turn. By playing on the amplitude of this correction, one can limit the roll angle, or even over-compensate it as shown by the body 3 'shown in broken lines.
- the roll and pitch are referred to indistinctly below as "attitude variation”.
- a component F 4 for attitude correction is added.
- the steering is programmed so as to create a correction torque of plate which opposes the roll.
- the steering is programmed so as to create an attitude correction torque which controls the pitch.
- the invention applies to a vehicle comprising at least four connections to the ground forming a front axle and a rear axle, the steering being programmed so as to create an attitude correction torque which controls both the roll and pitching.
- the steering of the attitude correction components is centralized because it concerns globally balance of the vehicle. It is provided by a central unit 6.
- the central unit 6 ensures at least a roll correction.
- the central unit 6 can also provide or ensure a pitch correction of the vehicle.
- each of the said links to the ground is likely to receive means for controlling the electric cylinders a force instruction which is the result of a contribution for the correction of the roll and a contribution for the pitch correction.
- the global correction component trim is the algebraic sum of a roll contribution and a contribution relating to the pitch.
- the correction components are of equal absolute value and are oriented in opposite directions one on the other side and on the other side of the vehicle.
- Said roll correction components are absolute value equal and being oriented in opposite directions from each other in each axle (a axle constituting a group of links to the ground), in order to apply to the body 3 a torque antiroll.
- Roll can be partially compensated (lower energy expenditure), or totally (better comfort, better tire performance), or even can be overcompensated as mentioned above, to improve the functioning even more radically of a vehicle like a four-wheel passenger car.
- the higher the compensation important the more you have to be able to develop a significant torque in the 52 motors, and to maintain it the time that the transverse (or longitudinal) stresses last, these being much longer than the stresses coming from the bumpy nature of the road, calling the depreciation component which will be discussed below.
- sensors 61, 62, 63 such as for example accelerometers linked to the body to assess non-vertical stress. It can be transverse acceleration and / or yaw speed (resulting in roll). We can also assess the acceleration longitudinal (resulting in pitch). This or these assessments allow develop one or more correct attitude correction couples.
- sensors making it possible to evaluate parameters indicative of the driving conditions. It is for example a steering wheel angle, pressure sensor brakes, accelerator action, and a vehicle speed sensor. This can allow to anticipate with respect to the moment at which accelerations parallel to the ground appear (transverse, longitudinal acceleration). In this case, we can use steering strategies observing those of the pilot's actions, estimating the likely consequences on the roll (and on the pitch), and the appropriate attitude correction is determined.
- control means can be controlled so that a torque overcompensating for transverse acceleration is accompanied by a slight dive vehicle volunteer.
- This example is cited only to make it clear that there is an infinity active controls possible.
- the invention also makes it possible to control in real time and very easily the distribution between the front axle and the rear axle of said roll correction components.
- an overall anti-roll torque acting on the body, plus the correction share of roll provided by the rear axle is important, the more the vehicle will tend towards a behavior survivor, and vice versa.
- ESP stabilization effect
- a stabilization effect can be obtained by acting dynamically on the distribution of roll correction torque between the front and the rear of the vehicle.
- the invention therefore applies, in a particular embodiment, to a vehicle comprising at least one front axle and one rear axle each having two connections to the ground mounted on either side of the median plane of symmetry of the vehicle, said means of steering steering in real time the distribution between the front axle and the rear axle of said attitude correction components opposing roll.
- the pitch correction of a 4-wheel passenger vehicle body depends on a overall pitch correction torque, and we can distribute on either side of the plane of symmetry of the vehicle, possibly by real-time control, the correction components acting on the pitch.
- the invention therefore applies, in a particular embodiment, to a vehicle comprising at least one front axle and one rear axle each having two connections on the ground mounted on either side of the median plane of symmetry of the vehicle, said means of steering driving in real time the distribution on either side of the median plane of symmetry of the vehicle of said correction components acting on the pitch.
